Get into the spirit with our new quilt along! Starting today, June 4, we’re haunting you with a FREE Spooky & Sweet quilt and cross stitch pattern every week for the next four weeks. Join Kimberly on the Fat Quarter Shop YouTube Channel as she guides you through sewing this quilt. It’s a perfect chance for beginners to get a ghostly start in quilting!
Each Tuesday from June 4-25, we’ll be conjuring up a new video tutorial on the Fat Quarter Shop YouTube Channel, featuring a FREE quilt block pattern and a FREE cross stitch pattern. Are you ready for some spooky fun sewing a new block each week?
Spooky & Sweet Quilt
The Spooky & Sweet Quilt is perfect for adding a touch of the Halloween spirit to your home, whether as a tablerunner or a wall hanging, with two finishing sizes: 30.5″ x 34.5″ and 17.5″ x 65.5″. We’re stitching our spooky creation with Bella Solids from Moda Fabrics, ensuring it’s as bewitching as can be.
To see all the supplies for this sew along head over to the Spooky & Sweet supplies page.
To sew up this quilt in your favorite Halloween fabrics, download the fabric requirements.
Spooky & Sweet Cross Stitch
The Spooky & Sweet Cross Stitch piece will be stitched in sections as we reveal a new portion of the pattern each week on the Spooky & Sweet Sew Along page. Just like in years past our Halloween-themed mystery cross stitch is designed to pair with the mystery quilt. Join us and transform your space with these eerie-sistible designs!
The Spooky & Sweet Cross Stitch measures 98w x 98h, finishing as a 7” square when stitched on 14 count Aida! If you’re working with a different cloth, be sure to use our free Cross Stitch Calculator to find your desired size.
The floss and cloth you are always up to you, but we stitched ours with the Spooky & Sweet Thread Pack on Charcoal Dyed Effect 14 Count Aida by Fabric Flair. Some sweet supplies keeping us organized are the Pumpkin Floss Drops, Spooky & Sweet Enamel Needle Minder, and the Pumpkin and Lilac Mad for Plaid Project bags.

It looks super cute… even if I’m not a fan of Halloween! I might attempt the cross stitch! 🙂 Thanks for another fun, free project!
